We begin today’s show with a discussion about what is and is not the role of government in disaster relief. I observe how our government has bankrupted us with so much wasteful spending but then is slow to respond when our own countrymen are trapped in a flood. The contrast to DeSantis’ management is palpable. Next, we’re joined by Chris Martz, a brilliant young meteorology student who has put together a presentation showing the historical context of hurricanes. He proves that there is no definitive long-term trend in the frequency and intensity of hurricanes in our part of the world, much less a correlation with global warming across the earth. We delve into various natural weather phenomena that explain the disaster in North Carolina and why the notion that either global warming or “weather modification” is responsible is absurd.  Learn more about your ad choices.
